Description

This implant essentially has the same anatomical configuration as the lunate bone, the concavities being more pronounced to provide for stability. The implant has a pair of suture holes designed for use in suture fixation through the scaphoid and triquetrum to provide temporary postoperative stability while a capsuloligamentous system forms around the implant. The design of this implant includes a deep articular concavity on the distal surface to receive and secure the head of the capitate.
